Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Malleability describes the property of a metal's ability to be distorted below compression. It is a physical property of metals by which they can be hammered, shaped and rolled into a very thin sheet without rupturing. A soda can's walls are very thin, and therefore express the malleability of aluminum.
